Un parti français? Oui, s'il vous plaît.

"I swear if she makes me wear a beret, I'm leaving" ~Lee

"Um, I don't really think I need to share a candle-lit dinner with my coworkers" ~Jill

These were the murmurings that could be heard around my office on Friday as I completely took over our monthly "Festive Food Friday". And they were shortly followed by phrases more along the lines of "Wow, you should do this for a living." and "Do you plan weddings?"

It's a classic pattern...

Lauren sees something neglected that could be done better

She takes total control

She goes way overboard to the point of people thinking she's ridiculous

Everyone has a lovely time.

And that's exactly what happened as we were transported to a quaint little bistro in France, if only for the afternoon.

And if you ever feel like having your own Festive (French) Food Friday, here's a little playlist I made to set the mood. Seriously feel free to steal any of my ideas & bon appetit!
